Sorry guys, I was SO tired that I slept whilst I was typing the review! SORRY! But here it is: The cast was the same as last night. But the atmosphere was different. James (Billy): His singing has DEFINITELY improved and sounded alot more comfortable in my opinion. His acting.... great, touching, spot-on, energetic as usual! His dancing..... WOW again! He NEVER fails to amaze me with his dance! SO much emotion and anger and passion and energy in it! And we just went METAL when he did his backflip in 'Electricity'. I would give him a 10/10 for this afternoon's performance. Brad (Michael): What can I say? He is hilarious and his chemistry with James is SO good! It seemed that they have been performing together for AGES! Flawless! Michael again is REALLY energetic! And his 'megasoraus' joke was hilarious! LOVE him! He's such a killer onstage! 10/10! Gillian, Tom, Ann & Chris (Mrs. Wilkinson, Dad, Grandma & Tony): 3rd time seeing them, not disappointed. REALLY liked their performances, but all the praise is all the same as my previous posts! NO words can describe how good they were and you would not know that Gillian and Chris were both alternates and understudies if you didn't know the show! Brooke (Debbie): She's REAL cute onstage! I love her deathstares to Mrs. Wilkinson. And her fedup attitude towards her. She's SO funny! Hope the role was bigger! During the snowing scene, the lights went weird. It started turning into different kinds of colours! But not much audiences realise. I think in today's performance, James seemed more confident. It was still SO nice to see all the actors' eye contacts! I was overall VERY impressed with the show! I mean, I will probably never seen James in the show again ;( but seeing him is already a bonus! God bless that boy! After that, we went to the stage door and we took ALOT of pictures with the ballet girls and James. Pictures:

Hi , I have seen the show four times and I was lucky enough to see every Billy , Michael and Debbie! I was bored and typed Billy elliot into the gogle search and found this , I have read so far all 89 pages !!!!!!!! my eyes are sore !
All of them are simply amazing , In all my theatre days I have never seen such equally talented kids , you go james ! coming back after six weeks is awesome . I couldn't take one of them and say they were the best , they are all excellent ! I never lose my enthusiasm of the show . P.S. My name comes from an adaptation of the place I live , and Also the name of a sausage

I know this is like REAL late (1am), but erm I just feel that people should not compare the boys (maybe in ur hearts, but keep it to urself), this is because all of them (tho I have not seen George) are brill! And people shud not JUST talk about them! I know that they are FAB! but hey, I think the WHOLE cast is just as good!

MF, that is enough - whilst it should be obvious to even those people who are not so intelligent that you do not take photos for legal reasons during any production - and that there is actually a fine for those who do break the law, MF - get a life - you are not the policeman of the board - whilst you are entitled to your opinion, you should respect the opinion of others. Those people who have taken pictures during the performance know who they are, the theatre now know who they are, and the law will most probably be applied accordingly. MF, that is what the legal system is for - leave it to them.
On a happier note, well done James for yet another good performance - the best seats are the £50 seats, but it is possible to get decent seats for less. Updated On: 10/30/05 at 08:07 PM

Just got back from mary poppins and saw additional 2 pages FULL of DIRTY MESSAGES. Could you all stop this please!!!! And stop comparing the boys. Why everytime James or George in fame, somebody always try to ruin nice discussions that is going on. I really don't get it!!!

hi well it's good to see that everyone enjoyed james' show yesterday and thanks for the reviews and pics!! i am amazed that i didn't know felix goes to my school!! wow!! also what was that thing on the other page about happy new year?? a bit random don't you think??lol stacey
Just been reading through the thread and it seems this show has some really fanatical supporters. Well i agree the show is very good but far from perfect,the ensemble for instance are awful and bring nothing to the show leaving the young lead an awaful lot to do. The 3 debbies are average beyond belief,in the film debbie is integral to billys growing up but not here. Onto the boys Liam brilliant a star Leon very good will get better George fair performance but like someone has siad needs to learn about manners in theatre James average but you still enjoy his performance Regards a previous debate there is something disturbing about the posts about little boys. The big question is can the show go on without liam,he carryed george and james but can leon?
Not much sign of dyslexia there. Another lie to add to the collection ?
All great things must come to pass. We know the first will soon be last and in the ground we may be lain , but a seed is sown to rise again.
